    Boiler valve in correct position?

    Whilst repressurising my boiler, I accidentally adjusted the wrong valve and now I'm not sure whether it should be up or down. The valve is a black plastic one and is on the same pipe as the blue one (which you turn to let in water). The boiler is a Logic Combi C 24. Thanks for your help

    Recessed Shelves in Bathroom Wall

    Because of the exposed plaster boards where I removed the wall tiles. I'm assuming plasterboard is fixed to stud walls?

    Recessed Shelves in Bathroom Wall

    I thought the party wall was the brick wall(s) behind the stud wall -- I wouldn't be touching those. Fair comment about the fire break though. But isn't it: <my house><stud wall><Brick wall><gap/break><brick wall><stud wall><neighbours> ?

    Shaver Socket in Bathroom on Lighting Socket

    Hello I currently have a shaving light with a 240v shaver socket built into it which is connected to a lighting circuit. I would like to know if it is possible to remove the light and just fit a dual 110v/240v socket to the existing wiring and if so, is there any particular kind I need to get...

    Recessed Shelves in Bathroom Wall

    Thinking of installing some recessed shelves in the wall of my bathroom but I don't know how much depth I will have. The wall is a dry wall in a fairly new(?) build (I'd say about 1970s-80s) and it's shared with a neighbour. Any ideas?

    Cutting Soil Pipe in Confined Space

    Thanks Hugh. Whilst we're on that subject, how much of the pipe does/should go into the joint? I had a look at some guides but none of them state this (I would've thought it useful when measuring cuts!?) or is there no 'lip' inside the joints?

    Cutting Soil Pipe in Confined Space

    Hello I read in another, very old thread (with similar title) that you can cut a soil pipe in a confined space with a nylon string but I'm worried that the cut might not be perfectly straight (the cut I need to make is not at eye level). Does it matter if the cut is not perfectly straight...

    Noob sink hosewaste pipe questions

    I want to add a half meter or so plastic pipe to this fitting (so that my washing machine drainage pipe will reach) but I'm confused as to which size pipe and fittings I need to look for. The actual diameter of the pipe is around 30mm but I can only find fittings for 32mm and the couplings...
